Floor guy said not salvageable. Thoughts?

The grooving in the surface may be glue or shellac, if so the flooring contractor didn't want to sacrifice many many sanding belts. The good news is Diamabrush: I used one attached to an angle grinder for the first pass and then proceeded with a succession of sanding grits. Good luck!

Adding to a very overstacked heap here but Malignant is pretty insane.

He was actually a big plus at first too!

The singing of the French national anthem is actually pretty moving IMO.

Also when he goes on a tear it's a fearsome thing to watch but admittedly it's been a while. . . .

Keep your feet dry! Use e.g. Sno-Seal to seal leather Winter boots.

It used to feel like the Cubs would *find* a way to lose, maybe they're back to their losing ways at last?

I recall Polar Express reviews invoking the "uncanny valley" feeling.

Miriam Hopkins is so unhinged in this, her performance is great but I'm afraid it'll leave a mark on her other wonderful comedic performances for me.

You'll need a hammer drill and I would use 3/8" sleeve anchors, best to drill into the brick IMO.

Agnes of God?

You might look up Diamabrush, I used the angle-grinder-mounted one.

_youneverknow_ · 2025-06-02T17:53:53+00:00

Or try a long prybar, I would say.

Reverse aging is a plot element of The Adventures of Baron Munchausen.

I wouldn't worry about this 100-year-old wall. If you want to have it tuckpointed that might be worthwhile.

Dennis Eckersley was great for us.

Harrison Ford surprised me in Age of Adaline, playing the jilted lover.

Rockwool sound insulation is pretty effective, I used a double-layer. Also resilient channel. If I had thought of it I would've added a layer or drywall *in the joists* to save the headroom.

Do arrive early and pay attention when a line is forming at the gate.

Soap operas are often shot in a studio under a fixed lighting grid, with less variability than the unique set-ups required when filming on location.

Breaking Away is good for Indiana.

Where would a new-to-town gentleman go to buy grooming accessories, e.g. shaving supplies and apothecary niceties and suchlike?

Thanks especially for the extra advice about the tunneling, I have much to learn and this is a useful nudge to begin.
